Thanks, wow.

I just noticed something: this is the first title that is capitalized, I do believe. Wonder why?

And paulb, I shall have to defer the choice to you, among
Yum-Yum, Pitti-Sing or Peep-Bo.

Don't know about Imperatrix...calls up visions of patent leather panties, push-up bras, fishnet stockings, handcuffs and those short whip thingings with the pieces of metal at the end of the strands of leather. Call me fuddy-duddy but that just doesn't sound like Jackie.
belM! You've seen my closet?!? Wow--wouldn't it be funny if the title after Pooh-Bah was fuddy-duddy?

Arbitrix, now...wwh, I like that! Once upon a time, I thought I was a mess_handler, but this is much nicer!

Quantity I can manage because I spend almost my whole day here. I can't read much now. But as for quality, I have to be genuinely humble because so many of you are more widely read, and up to date on current literature in a way I can never manage. So all I can do is eagerly await somebody's giving me a chance to make a wisecrack. At least the lynching party seems to have disbanded. Glad of that.

Darling, you have a tremendous storehouse of knowledge and
experience that cannot possibly be equaled by any of us.
I am honored to know you. You are a beloved treasure.

I value your collective kindness so much I will try to refrain from letting my ribaldry get out of hand. I might even try to refrain from brainstorming. Ask CK what that means. (Then tattle to me, so I can tell if he bowdlerizes it.)

A big helping of ditto from Down Under. I was tempted to emulate your barracking for sports teams, but the soccer team I support will soon crush the one that shanks supports in the FA Cup semi-final, and it seemed in poor taste to remind him of that fact.

I have trouble comparing times, particularly when I have to switch from one window to another.
